Scion introduced the all-new 2016 iM hatchback and iA sedan this week at the 2015 New York Auto Show. Both models will arrive at dealerships this fall.

2016 Scion iMHere's a five-door compact with a decidedly sporty look. A single trim level will be available, in true Scion form, but the company assures it will be equipped like an upgraded model from competitors.

The 2016 Scion iM features eight airbags, 17” alloy wheels, a layered dashboard design, sporty-looking instruments, a 60/40 split-folding rear seat with cargo cover, a Pioneer multimedia system with 7” display, as well as a leather-trimmed steering wheel and shift knob.

Drivers will be able to appreciate the 137-horsepower 1.8L engine and 6-speed manual transmission (or optional CVT) from the comfort of sport seats and a quiet cabin that rivals luxury cars.

2016 Scion iAScion's first-ever sedan will appeal to young customers looking for a practical car that's also eye-catching and dynamic to drive. It uses a 1.5L 4-cylinder engine which produces 106 horsepower through a 6-speed manual or automatic transmission.

Keyless entry with push-button start, a sport steering wheel, a rearview camera, and a 7” touchscreen come standard in the 2016 Scion iA.
